Welcome to the third workshop in the Cultural Perspectives Training Series; presented by the Indigenous Perspectives Society.
In this third session, delve into the pivotal concepts of colonization, privilege, and stereotyping. Reflect on their profound impact on our work dynamics and personal relationships. Explore strategies to foster stronger collaboration with Indigenous communities. Discover practical ways to integrate anti-oppressive and decolonizing approaches into both your professional endeavors and everyday interactions.
In order to create a space that fosters conversation, interaction and reflection we will be limiting each workshop to 35 participants.
